My Theory: The Nature of True Balance & Perpetual Motion

True Balance:

An object that is in a current state of equilibrium or point of rest is not truly balanced, but supported. A very thin stick, accurately positioned to stand up vertically, is not truly balanced, but supported at the bass from which it rests, just like any object, but on a smaller scale. The state of any object that rests supported is dead! True balance is not obtained by an object at rest, but by movement! A person or animal standing has to make constant, slight adjustments to the position of their body weight to maintain their own balance. A thin, rolling wheel/hoop will maintain its own balance, until it stops rolling, and topples over. A spinning top will maintain its own balance, until it stops spinning, and topples over. The state of any moving object, maintaining its own balance, is very much alive!

The directional force of movement, of an object must, equal or overcome, at a right angle, to the direction of its own imbalance, thus resulting in self maintaining balance. The weaker the imbalance, the less energy needed. The greater the imbalance, the more energy needed.

Both the rolling wheel and the spinning top direct their force of movement in a forward, horizontal direction, which is at a right angle to the sideways, vertical direction of their imbalance. This also applies to a spinning coin, the rotation of the planets around the sun and riding a bicycle etc…


Perpetual Motion:

Weights placed within a wheel, positioned to keep the wheel overbalanced on one side, will not bring forth an infinite rotation, but cause a momentary turn of the wheel, bringing the centre of gravity to the bottom, just like that of a vertical standing object falling over; The state of the current weights are dead, they have no life in them.

Consider a spinning top, when still, it remains at rest, but once spinning; it is “brought to life”. It spins, causing it to constantly shift/correct its own weight, in order to keep itself upright and balanced, as an inverted pendulum. It has in fact, become independent, with a mind of its own.

Now consider a still wheel, with internal weights resting in positions to overbalance the wheel. Upon releasing the wheel, it starts to spin/revolve, causing the internal resting weights to be “brought to life”, they become upright and balanced, causing them to constantly shift/correct their weight positions as the wheel spins in order to maintain their upright balance (just like that of a spinning top) which results in the overbalancing and turning of the wheel. So long as the wheel is spinning, the weights are kept upright and balanced, causing their positions to keep the wheel spinning.

The spinning top also won’t fall down because it directs a same or greater amount force of movement in an outward, horizontal direction, which is at right angles to the sideways, vertical direction of its imbalance. The same must also apply to the weights and the rotation within the wheel.

P.S If you look at the toys page, it depicts the following:

1. An upward direction of the scissor jack.
2.Two balanced hammer men working in pairs as one goes up and out, the other goes down and in.
3.A Spinning Top
4.I'm unsure on the other two right hand objects, i am working on that at the moment.

I believe that the toys page is giving examples of the different directions and positions of forces used within his wheel.

Any Comments?

I read it, its quite an interesting statment that a pebble thrown into the sea does infact change the sea height. My theory is just an idea in trying to figure out how to raise a weight upwards lightly and spinning objects seem to be a possible answer.

Alex

What is the truth of a spinning object? All I know is about the angular velocity.

Alex

yes it is quite amaiing that both gravity and an anti gravity effect are both cuased by spinning objects,  science shops have the small spinning wheel that balances on a pin, velocity causes the effect but without weight there would be no effect, so the weight must transfer. I see the goal of your question. how can you use the effect to alter the weight displacement of an object to gain or lose weight in a device to create an imbalance or shift. I will have to think about this for you

I was thinking about how in glass and chrome how really awesome this machine would look, a giant rotating wheel with these multiple arms, with discus shape glass flywheels spinning in the end of each arm, surrounded by chrome cages that are held suspended radially from 45 degrees above the keep the disk level, the motor is fixed to the cage to remove alternate rotation, with the spike protruding from the base of the top sitting in a divot on a plate, a plate which  like a ferris wheel car sits on its own axle that remains level no matter the position of the arm, without the sliding and clunking of moving weights would be almost silent running but for the hum of the small motors. naturally a retail version would have the plate as the power source connection just like the new power mats for phones,  I guess that means we can expect it to look nothing like that at all by the time mechanical practicalities set in 

Ok, here is my latest thought of a possibility to incorporate the Tippe Top (kind of spinning top that flips its weight up when spinning) into a wheel with two equal weights. The hinged pivot allows the weights to swing vertically up and down as the wheel spins. The crossbar which connects the two equal weights makes them both swing up and down at the same time.

Description: Once the wheel is spun, it causes the weights to constantly oppose each other as the left hand weight (in the drawn position) wants to swing down and the right hand weight wants to stay/swing up due to the momentum of their circular rotation. Because the weights want to fly out in different directions and are yet connected to each other, this causes them to balance out. They should then become easier to lift both weights vertically up as shown in the drawing in order to keep them above the axle rather than below, just like a Tippe Top which insists on remaining above its fulcrum point rather than below.

P.S If you look on the toys page, you will see that the two hammer men are balanced and opposing each other via their connection, but underneath the is a depiction of a spinning top and on the left a scissor jack that points upwards. This may indicate exactly what this wheel is trying to achieve. The hammer men/weights are only balanced and opposing each other when in a spinning/rotating system which causes them to want to rise up. Note that the spinning top is drawn balanced meaning it must be spinning and that is why the hammer men are balanced causing them to rise up according to the scissor jack depiction.

The above picture I have built and tested now, ill explain again what it was supposed to do before i tell you what it does lol...

Supposed to function: The two weights can lean up and down in a vertical manner at right angles to the wheel. When the wheel is spun, both weights are caused to want to fly out in opposite directions in the wheel but they cannot as they are attached. For instance, the right hand weight wants to fly up where the left hand weight tries to slam down. This causes them to keep each other in equilibrium as the wheel spins therefore becoming easier to keep lifting up.

What happened: when the wheel was spun, both weights were thrown out and kept on the outside of the wheel which is nothing new. When the wheel slowed to a certain RPM, the two weights leans out more but didn't drop so it seems they do become lighter, when slower, they would drop into the center axle at the top, then to the rim at the bottom. but at a certain rpm, it seems possible to manipulate them...

Alex

Ah thanks for the input, seems like that is a failure then lol...

So what ways are there to cause two weights to act like a tippe top in a rotating wheel, there must be a way to do that...
